Pear Triplet Opal Stud Earrings, Gold Plated Silver · Style 729

Pair of pear-shaped triplet opal stud earrings in gold plated sterling silver, with 6mm x 4mm stones. Each opal is hand-selected, so yours will differ from the photo.

These neat stud earrings each hold a pear-shaped triplet opal, 6mm x 4mm, set in a smooth bezel of gold plated sterling silver. The rounded base and gently tapered tip give a classic teardrop outline, and the slim bezel wraps the stone for a clean, secure finish that suits everyday wear.

A triplet opal is made from a thin slice of natural opal that is backed with a dark base and capped with a clear dome of quartz or glass. The cap protects the opal and deepens its look, and triplets are known for lively play of colour, the flashes of spectral colour that move as the stone is tilted in the light. Because it is layered, a triplet is not a solid opal.

Every opal we set is hand-selected and unique, so the colours and pattern of your pair will differ from the stones in the photo. The photo shows the design of the earrings, not the exact opals you will receive. This piece comes from Umoona Opal Mine & Museum in Coober Pedy, South Australia.
